The name of Zhengqi Villa is grandiose, but it is not like that at all. To put it bluntly, it was originally a Yizhuang used to park coffins. Since the beginning of this year, with the frequent occurrence of disasters and the outbreak of war, there have been many deaths. The coffins were not enough, so many corpses were wrapped in straw mats, or even straw mats, wrapped in straw and the like, and threw them directly on the hill behind the Zhengqi Villa.

Over time, it became a mass grave. The corpses are stacked on top of each other, and there are countless of them. It's not that there will be so many dead people in Fenglin County, but this city has a wharf, which originally belonged to a county town with convenient water conservancy, and there were many travelers and merchants. And the displaced refugees who are fleeing and want to go to Jiangnan by water, they will also choose here.

People have come and gone a lot, or they are not accustomed to the water and soil, or they are hungry and cold, and they die in the wilderness, and their bodies will basically be sent to the Zhengqi Villa. Perhaps, it is a matter of habit, just like picking up garbage and dealing with it in a centralized manner; or it may be that it wants to use the name of "Righteous Villa" to suppress more and more unjust souls, after all, there is the word "righteousness".

However, in fact, the gathering of the dead breeds trouble and is prone to problems. I don't know when it began, the news of the haunting of the Righteous Qi Villa spread, and there were terrifying sights and hearables. And there is a tendency to intensify and spread to all directions. At this rate of development, I am afraid that in less than a year and a half, it will erode into the county.

In the face of such a tricky and terrible situation, Zhu Xianling was like sitting on pins and needles, and it was difficult to sleep and eat. It was not easy for him to get a county order, but if he ignored the evil of the righteous spirit villa, not to mention that the county order could not be made, his life would be difficult to protect.

The problem is that there is nothing the entire county government can do about evil. At the beginning, he sent a quick catcher to investigate, but the dead were killed, the wounded were wounded, and the two catchers who escaped back by luck went crazy that night and bit people when they saw them. Today, they are still tied with iron cables and locked in a cell, especially guarded.

Helpless, the only way to do this was to expedite the official document, send it to the state office, and ask the people from the nine doors to help. In the official document, special emphasis was placed on the seriousness of the situation......

Hearing this, Chen Tang understood, no wonder the two captains came together, and they came in the wind and snow.

This evil incident is very unusual.

After talking about the case, Zhu Wei secretly glanced at Chen Tang, and muttered in his heart: He didn't know much about the strength of the personnel of the Nine Doors, but he had only one person, and he always felt a little thin when he looked at it. But after thinking about it, Chen Tang can carry a lot of family belongings on his body, carrying a sword box, hanging a long sword from his waist, and two swords on his body, he should be very good at swordsmanship. In addition, he carried two horses and two boxes. Needless to say, the box must contain something powerful, specially designed to deal with evil ......

Looking at the battle, it is obvious that he came prepared.

Thinking of this, Zhu Xianling was relieved.

Of course, if he knew that the chest was full of gold and silver treasures, he was afraid that he would go crazy.

From beginning to end, Zhu Xianling never doubted Chen Tang's identity. Pretending to be the captain of the Nine Doors is not easy in itself, and Chen Tang's performance is no problem.

"That's it, Daoist Mo, according to your wishes, how should you deal with it? ”

Chen Tang glanced at him: "If this happens, the people of the Yamen still dare to go over?"

Zhu Xianling said abruptly: "As officials, they eat publicly, and they can't be greedy for life and afraid of death." ”

Chen Tang smiled: "If there is a need, the poor road will call people." ”

"When is the Governor going to leave?"

Zhu County's order seemed a little anxious, and then said: "It's not the official's supervision, it's really urgent, and it's about to be the New Year." If it is unresolved, it will be difficult for the official to explain to the people of the city. ”

Chen Tang was noncommittal, and suddenly asked: "I heard that Lord Zhu has come here to serve as a county magistrate, but it has only been a few months. ”

Zhu Xianling nodded: "Not bad." ”

Chen Tang asked again: "You are from Qinzhou, how many years have you been a Jinshi?"

Zhu Xianling was stunned for a moment, and said with a somewhat unnatural face: "This official is from a son. ”

When Chen Tang heard this, he immediately understood. He is not a pedagogue, but in the case that it is difficult for Jinshi to become an official, it is debatable that a person has become a county magistrate. Nine times out of ten, it has something to do with the current situation of the turmoil in Qinzhou. I don't know if it's a favor or a real money.

Zhu Xianling said with a displeased face: "Daoist Mo, why are you asking this?"

The lack of fame is his heart disease, if it weren't for the fact that the other party is the captain of the Nine Doors, he would have lost his temper.

Chen Tang said: "Without him, it's just chatting." Well, I still have to prepare something today, and tomorrow morning, I will go to Zhengqi Villa. Poor people are used to being alone, so they don't need others to follow. ”

"Okay, this official is here, first on behalf of the people of the city, thank you Mo Daochang!"

Zhu County's official tone was very strong.

Chen Tang said again: "By the way, you said yesterday that after you went to Zhengqi Villa, you went crazy and were locked up in a prison cell, and Poor Dao wanted to take a look." ”

"Okay, you can go now. ”

So Chen Tang carried the sword box on his back, went to the yamen with Zhu Xianling and others, and came to the outside of the prison.

Zhu Xian Ling suddenly stopped, and coughed dryly: "Daochang Mo, let Li Zhutou take you in, the official still has something to deal with, and it is not good to accompany you." ”

Chen Tang glanced at you and said, "Lord Zhu, please take care of yourself." ”

Zhu Xian ordered to make a salute, and hurriedly ran away.

That Li Zhu's first name was "Xingyun", and he lowered his voice and said: "The county lord is not very bold, and the conditions in prison are really terrifying, and it makes people have nightmares when they look at it." ”

From this sentence, Chen Tang could know that this Li Xingyun was not very interested in Zhu Wei, and might even have complaints, so he took the opportunity to take eye medicine and ridicule Zhu Wei for being as cowardly as a mouse. Or it has something to do with the two arresters in the prison, after all, they used to be Li Xingyun's loyal subordinates, but now they have been reduced to such a field, as the county commander, they don't even dare to look at it, which is chilling.

Chen Tang was noncommittal, and said indifferently: "Let's go in." ”

The two of them stepped through the outside portal and entered the cell.

As soon as he entered, Chen Tang felt a cold aura, permeating the surroundings and everywhere.

This breath is different from the evil yin qi, but another indescribable and uncomfortable breath, which contains some restless and restless meaning. In such an environment, if people stay for a long time, they will be affected, and they will go crazy.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that there is no injustice and no prison. And the anger of grievance, the meaning of indignation, the thoughts of resentment, and so many other kinds of condensation together constitute the darkness of the prison.

"Mo Daochang, over here. ”

Li Xingyun led the way in front, and Chen Tang followed behind. Skirting a dimly lit corridor, I turned around and saw a cell in front of me.

The presence in the cell seemed to smell the breath of the living and immediately began to howl. Its voice is poignant, not like a human voice, like a ghost crying.
